Thanks - seems to be working now - may have been a cache problem.

However I have attempted to now write more than one variable to the text
file and it only appears to be writing the first one.

Here is my PHP code

<?php

$filename = $_POST['filename']; 

$text1_Font = $_POST['text1_Font']; 
$text1_Size = $_POST['text1_Size'];

if (!$handle = fopen($filename, 'w')) {

         echo "&message=Cannot open file&";
         exit;

}

if (fwrite($handle, $text1_Font,$text1_Size) === FALSE) {
        echo "&message=Cannot write to file&";
        exit;
}

fclose($handle);

echo "&message=$text1_Font&$text1_Size&";

?>

Any ideas why the second variable is not getting written?


This is my action script

        var vSender = new LoadVars();
        var vReceiver = new LoadVars();


        vSender.text1_Font = text1_Font;
        vSender.text1_Size = text1_Size;
        
        vSender.action = "write";
        vSender.filename = "order2.txt";


        vReceiver.onLoad = function(success) {
                
                trace ("onLoad function");
                
                if (success) {
                        trace("text writen to the text file:\n" +
this.message);
                        content_txt.text = this.message;
                } else {
                        trace("error");
                        content_txt.text = "error";
                }
        };


        
vSender.sendAndLoad("http://www.mediakitchen.co.uk/clients/davehann/testpost
.php", vReceiver, "POST");

Thanks

Paul

This is working for me.
Serge

<?php
$filename = 'test.txt';
$somecontent = "Add this to the file\n";

$handle = fopen($filename, 'w')

// Write $somecontent to our opened file.
if (fwrite($handle, $somecontent) === FALSE) {
echo "Cannot write to file ($filename)";
exit;
}

echo "Success, wrote ($somecontent) to file ($filename)";

fclose($handle);
?>
